Abstract: Titanium and its alloys are important engineering materials due to their low density, high strength, and good bio-compatibility. The study of critical resolved shear stress (CRSS) values of basal, prismatic, and pyramidal ⟨c + a⟩ slip systems has been
Abstract: Synchrotron x-ray–based imaging techniques, such as radiography and tomography, have reached sufficient spatio-temporal resolution that they are now used almost routinely to investigate solidification in technologically important systems such as steel, Ni, Al, and other alloy systems. Studies of
La Defensa PhD tendrá lugar, a las 12:00, el próximo martes 18 de junio en la Universidad Carlos III (Leganes), en el Aula de Grados Padre Soler. La disertación se titula «Effect of Graphene Nanoplatelets and Carbon Nanotubes in PEEK
Abstract Magnesium batteries are superior to all the known battery systems owing to its substantially larger volumetric capacity, environmental benignity, electrochemical stability and lower cost. This study is focused on the improving the electrochemical characteristics of Magnesium based batteries. In

Abstract: Virtual testing by means of progressive damage and failure analysis (PDFA) of composite structures holds the promise of reducing the timeline for certification of composite structures by complementing experimental testing. The focus of this talk is on recent investigations
La Defensa Doctoral tendrá lugar, a las 12:00 hr, el próximo martes 28 de marzo en la Sala de Seminarios de la Escuela de Caminos, Puertos y Canales de la UPM. La disertación se titula «Fast Mapping of Microstructure and
La Defensa PhD tendrá lugar, a las 11:30, el próximo lunes 25 de marzo en la Universidad Carlos III (Leganes), en el aula 3.S1.08. La disertación se titula “Development of new Cr-based hardmetals by liquid phase sintering and spark plasma
Abstract: Metastable β titanium alloys constitute a promising family of alloys due to their high specific strength, high damage tolerance, workability, hardenability as well as corrosion resistance that has attracted great attention worldwide. However, their deformation mechanisms still remain controversial,
Abstract: Grain boundaries (GB) are generally considered as static obstacles to dislocations and sinks for point defects and their clusters. But, in fact, the processes that take place at GBs is more complex and can reveal properties directly related to
ABSTRACT The Thermodynamics of Irreversible Processes (TPI) applied to the mechanics of materials boomed significantly in France in the 60s and 70s, under the impulse of Paul Germain. The formalization of the Generalized Standard Materials, proposed in 1975 by Bernard
Abstract: Cells respond not only to biochemical but also to physical cues, such as stiffness, geometry and matrix degradability. In-vitro studies showed that hydrogel elasticity or degradation properties alone can direct cell differentiation, while scaffold geometry can control tissue growth
Abstract: Evolution has provided us with the most abundant and versatile source of materials. In my talk, I will show how proteins can be used as labels and as building blocks. We will explore how an enzyme can be mutated
La Defensa PhD tendrá lugar, a las 11:30, el próximo jueves 21 de febrero en la Universidad Carlos III (Leganes) en el aula 7.01.H01. La disertación se titula “Development and optimization of the properties of gamma/gamma´ co-based superalloys for high
El presidente de la Comunidad de Madrid, Ángel Garrido, ha participado en la ceremonia de entrega de los Premios Talento Joven-Carné Joven, en la que se ha reconocido la trayectoria de cinco jóvenes de entre 14 y 30 años que
Abstract: We shall present a ‘smart’ framework, developed to create surrogate models of complex phenomena in an automated way, based on a minimum amount of computer simulations. To do so, the framework combines Design of Experiments, Computational Modeling, and Neural
Abstract: During the last couple years, laser-based additive manufacturing (AM) technologies such as laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) and directed energy deposition (DED) have evolved from a mere prototyping technology to a real production technology that allow building parts with intricate
